Why Logo and Branding Are Worth the Investment

We’re continuing our website/brand design series with Sam Humphries, Art Director, and Caleb Chancey, Creative Director, from Infomedia. Sam and Caleb both worked on redesigning Carrie’s website (launching soon!), and break down that process from start to finish. We get into what ideas Carrie started out with, what Sam and Caleb considered, and why branding exercises are so valuable. Sam and Caleb also share insider tips, like if it’s ever ok to be a bit cliche, how and how long users interact with a web page, and the many categories of logos.
